THIS WEEK THE SANCTUARY LAMP BURNS IN MEMORY OF

JOSEPHINE MAJERCZAK

VOCATIONS As John the Baptist introduced the people of his time to Jesus “a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved, with whom I am well pleased.’” Perhaps God is calling you to do the same in our time as a priest, deacon, brother or sister, contact Fr. Chris Lemieux, Vocation Director, Archdiocese of Toronto at 416-968-0997.

Email: [email protected] www.vocationstoronto.ca

SANCTUARY LAMP: the lamp hanging in the sanctuary, when lit, indicates the Real Presence of Christ, Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity, reserved in the Tabernacle (the veil of the Tabernacle indicates the same reality). The flickering light is also a sign of the prayers of the

faithful which remain after they have left the parish church. This is the whole purpose of votive lights, which we have before images of the Sacred Heart, Our Lady, St Joseph, etc. The suggested offering is $20.00.

The Sign of Peace: At this time of year, when various illnesses are more prevalent and may be more easily spread, some people may feel reluctant to give or receive the Sign of Peace by way of shaking hands. In these cases, a nod of the head together with the greeting such as “The peace of Christ be with you” would be an alternate way of expressing peace. There is no reason the sign of peace cannot be expressed in other appropriate ways people feel comfortable with. It is important that everyone is sensitive and understanding when fellow parishioners choose to express the Sign of Peace in a way other than shaking hands.

Altar Server Meetings will resume in the New Year and will take place on the following Saturday evenings from 7:00-9:00 pm in the parish hall on February 22nd and March 28th, and from 6:00 to 8:00pm on June 20th. Please mark your calendars. All altar servers are asked to attend. Call Deacon Rudy at 647-225-1915 for further information.

CONFIRMATION: LETTER OF INTENT Confirmandi are asked to submit their Letter of Intent DURING Mass on Saturday, January 11th or Sunday, January 12th.

FIRST PENANCE RETREATS: In November, each family signed up for a First Penance Retreat. You and your child MUST attend the retreat session you signed-up for. At your session, you will sign your child up to receive the Sacrament of First Penance. The retreat dates are Saturdays: January 11th: 10:00am-noon OR 1:00-3:00pm

January 18th: 10:00am-noon

St. Vincent de Paul:

THANK YOU … to our parishioners for your generous support of our Christmas Outreach Program. Our heartfelt gratitude also goes out to the Catholic Women’s League, Knights of Columbus, Pickering Fire Fighters and to the students, teachers and staff at St. Elizabeth

Seton and St. Isaac Jogues schools. Thanks also to Father Marc-André and Father Tom for their support of our appeal. This Christmas we helped over 60 families living within our parish boundaries. We can also share some resources with needy Catholic parishes in Ajax, Whitby and Oshawa. Income tax receipts for donations made in your name in 2019 will be issued by the end of February.
